Apropros of labeling systems...
Yahoo has a Reuter's story covering a policy statement from the American Academy of Pediatrics. They're concerned about record content description labels; they don't think their "strong" enough. If the industry does not develop a stronger voluntary system, it said, Congress should impose one. (I wonder if they really said that Congress should impose a stronger voluntary system?) I wonder when people will realize that the threat of Congress imposing a ratings system seems functionally equivalent to Congress imposing a ratings system? -- ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ Mike McNally -- Egregiously Pointy -- Tivoli Systems, "IBM" -- Austin mailto:m5@tivoli.com mailto:m101@io.com http://www.io.com/~m101 ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
